Cease-and-Desist Order 3 articles

Cease-and-Desist Order is a formal demand from a regulator, attorney general or other authorized body directing a person or business to stop specified conduct. In gambling, it can be used against unlicensed wagering, prohibited products, unauthorized market access or other alleged violations. The order is an enforcement instrument rather than a criminal conviction or operating license, and its legal effect depends on the issuing authority, the cited law and any subsequent challenge or compliance process.
